Harris calls Trump cemetery visit disrespectful, political stunt
US Vice President Kamala Harris criticized Republican presidential rival Donald Trump on Saturday, August 31, over a visit he made to soldiers' graves at Arlington National Cemetery that was later used in campaign video footage.
"It is a solemn place; a place where we come together to honor American heroes who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service of this nation. It is not a place for politics," Harris wrote in an X post.
The vice president weighed in five days after Trump took part in a wreath-laying ceremony on Monday, August 26, honoring the 13 servicemembers killed during the US withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021.
